I liked your arms wrapped around my waist. And mine around your neck.
I had drank enough to make me feel good. Not too little, not too much, but just right. I kept stumbling and laughing at myself, like I had an inside joke that only I knew.
I lit the cigarette, inhaled and felt the freshness leave my mouth. I bumped into you, slurred you were cute. You laughed and said I was cuter. I tried not to smile, but the alcohol made me smile from ear to ear.
Several minutes later, I fell back into you in the hallway. Giggled, turned around and brought myself closer to you. Pressed my lips against yours, and I felt lost in that moment. It’s liked everything in the world stopped, and we were the only ones existing.
The rest of the night, I didn’t want to end.
When we got home this morning, most of what I drank already left my system. I was nervous that maybe, everything that happened only happened because we weren’t ourselves. You got ready for work and I curled up under your sheets. And as you started to leave, I called your name. I motioned a kiss face, and you leaned over to replay what happened hours before. Your lips lingered then you left. I stayed in your bed all day, catching up on the sleep I never got last night.
